Long Past Due

So It's 12:00 and I can't sleep. I've been thinking about Easton. And then I got to thinking of all the comment, cards, prayers, and just nice things people did for our family through that time. And I just want to say thank you. I was and am so grateful for all your kind words. It meant so much to me. It's amazing how little comments can help you get through trying times.
I know a lot saw my sisters blogs and I wasn't going to post pictures of Easton but I just want to post a few of my favorites.
This first one I love because its so sweet of Bradley and his baby and it also shows exactly how small he is.



I know this one kind of looks like he is foaming at the forehead but he wasn't. His skin was just really sensitive and bruised so I think that is why it looks like that. But this is another one I love. His hand is so tiny.
And this one I love because this is how Payson sleeps. With his mouth open. This week I walked into Payson's room and he looked just like Easton sleeping. It's amazing that even though he was so small he had so many features like a little Reisner. Usually I can't see that in my kids but with Easton I could.And the last one is where we buried him. That was by far the hardest part. But I think he has one of the best views on the farm. We planted a dogwood tree where he is buried. Supposedly Christ was crucified on a dogwood . The dogwood use to stand straight and tall and after Christ was crucified it has never stood straight. Now every year the dogwood is the first to bloom in the spring around Easter time. Which of course we celebrate Christ during Easter. So now every year Easton's tree will be the first to bloom.
I can't wait until I can hold Easton in my arms again. I'm so grateful to know he is mine and I know someday I will get to hold him. So until we meet again.
